Poland



Why Poland?
With its low cost of living and great healthcare system, Poland could be the perfect place to start the next chapter of your life. The culture here is vibrant, rich in history and stunning views, with so much to explore both inside capital Warsaw and Kraków. Transportation infrastructure is modern and developed, making exploring the country all the more easier. The language barrier can be an issue since most people don't speak English, while job prospects are slim for those who don't speak Polish. Housing and rent are generally affordable, though there can be difficulty with paperwork if you're not familiar with the country's legal system. Winters can also be pretty intense, so make sure to research what climate you'd prefer before committing to a new home. Overall, Poland works best for open-minded expats seeking the European life while willing to integrate into this welcoming culture.
